lmb do not catch well in a standard seine
This would explain why I got so very few (6 LMB fingerlings in 4 seine hauls) earlier this year. I had been assuming the small LMB in my pond were relatively few in number (first LMB spawn was this year). So the good news is I may have more than I thought.
The bad news is we're back to catching or electrofishing LMB in big bass ponds.
